Update on Gautsche status

UNM head coach Bob Davie said Wednesday night that quarterback Cole Gautsche will play on Saturday at Pitt, but Clayton Mitchem will likely start.

Gautsche went through drills on Wednesday.

Gautsche missed last week's game at UTEP because of concussion-like symptoms. He is expected to practice on Tuesday with contact on Wednesday. Head coach Bob Davie says if there are no setbacks with Gautsche, he will play on Saturday.
